Modified mycotoxins have been gaining importance in recent years and present a certain challenge in LC-MS/MS analysis. Due to the previous lack of a labeled isotopologue of the modified mycotoxin deoxynivalenol-3-glucoside, in our study we synthesized the first (13)C-labeled internal standard. Therefore, we used the Königs-Knorr method to synthesize deoxynivalenol-3-β-d-[(13)C₆]-glucoside origi...

A new phenolic glucoside, isoconiferoside (1), was isolated from the seeds of Panax ginseng (Araliaceae). The structure was determined to be 9-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 6)-β-D-glucopyranosyl]-trans-coniferyl alcohol based on spectroscopic analyses (1H- and 13C-NMR, DEPT, COSY, HMQC, and HMBC) and acid hydrolysis.

BACKGROUND Suoyang originates from a psammophyte named Cynomorium songaricum Rupr and has been known as a phenolic-antioxidant-enriched traditional Chinese herbal medicine. The present study attempted to investigate the protective effect of phenolic antioxidants in Suoyang towards •OH-mediated MSCs and then further discusses the chemical mechanisms. METHODS The lyophilized aqueous extract of ...

background and objectives: plants belonging to the genus tilia l. (tiliaceae) are often tall beautiful trees which are considered for various medicinal potentials of their flowers and leaves. the present study was an attempt to investigate the phytochemical constituents of tilia rubra subsp. caucasica leaves from the hyrcanian forests of north of iran. methods: chromatography on silica gel (nor...

antioxidants are compounds which can prevent biological and chemical substances from oxidative damage by reactive oxygen species. flavonoids are the most important class of polyphenolic compounds that because of their antioxidant characters possess biological activities and pharmacological effects. chrysin-6-c-fucopyranoside and chrysin-3-malonyl-6-c-fucopyranoside are mono c-glycosyl derivativ...

β-glucosidases (BGLs) hydrolyze cello-oligosaccharides to glucose and play a crucial role in the enzymatic saccharification of cellulosic biomass. Despite their significance for the production of glucose, most identified BGLs are commonly inhibited by low (∼mM) concentrations of glucose. Therefore, BGLs that are insensitive to glucose inhibition have great biotechnological merit. We applied a m...

BACKGROUND Interaction of aristololactam-β-D-glucoside and daunomycin with tRNA(phe) was investigated using various biophysical techniques. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Absorption and fluorescence studies revealed that both the compounds bind tRNA(phe) non-cooperatively. The binding of daunomycin was about one order of magnitude higher than that of aristololactam-β-D-glucoside. Stronger bin...

An ethanolic extract and its ethyl acetate-soluble fraction from leaves of Calendula officinalis L. (Asteraceae) were found to show an inhibitory effect on amylase. From the crude extract fractions, one new phenolic acid glucoside, 6'-O-vanilloyl-β-D-glucopyranose, was isolated, together with twenty-four known compounds including five phenolic acid glucosides, five phenylpropanoids, five coumar...

Thirteen polyphenolics were isolated from fresh pods of Caesalpinia pulcherrima using various methods of column chromatography. The structures of these polyphenolics were elucidated as gallic acid (1), methyl gallate (2), 6-O-galloyl-d-glucoside (3), methyl 6-O-galloyl-β-d-glucoside (4), methyl 3,6-di-O-galloyl-α-d-glucopyranoside (5), gentisic acid 5-O-α-d-(6'-O-galloyl)glucopyranoside (6), gu...
